 |

Hi all,
where can I find some infos on how the format of this file is and how I can edit it (means what does the "=" for example mean)?
greets, Matthias
ps: Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I found nothing about editing this file in the "Portage User Manual"! |

Hi
what about: ?
| Code: | Here are a few examples of the dependency specification format:
binutils matches
binutils-2.11.90.0.7 and binutils-2.11.92.0.12.3-r1
>binutils-2.11.90.0.7 matches
binutils-2.11.92.0.12.3-r1
sys-devel/binutils matches
binutils-2.11.90.0.7 and binutils-2.11.92.0.12.3-r1
sys-devel/binutils-2.11.90.0.7 matches
binutils-2.11.90.0.7
>sys-devel/binutils-2.11.90.0.7 matches
binutils-2.11.92.0.12.3-r1
>=sys-devel/binutils-2.11.90.0.7 matches
binutils-2.11.90.0.7 and binutils-2.11.92.0.12.3-r1
<sys-devel/binutils-2.11.92.0.12.3-r1 matches
binutils-2.11.90.0.7
<=sys-devel/binutils-2.11.92.0.12.3-r1 matches
binutils-2.11.90.0.7 and binutils-2.11.92.0.12.3-r1 |

from the portage manual :
| Quote: |
Portage also allows for a specific versions of packages to be unmerged. Ranges are specified using = (exact version), < (less then), > (greater then), <= (less then or equal to), and >= (greater then or equal to).

Hmm... I think I mean something different. For example, there is the following line in the file:
=kde-base/kde-3.1_beta1
But when I do a "emerge -p kde", I get the following
| Code: | These are the packages that I would merge, in order.
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] kde-base/kde-3.0.3 to /
|
What I meant with "formating" the file was: How - for example - can I unmask the kde-3.1_beta1?
I hope it's more clear now.
Greetings, Matthias |

| either change the "=" to ">" or comment it "#". |
